Moment parents and vicar chased down street by conspiracy theorists
The shocking moment conspiracy theorists chased parents and a vicar down the street amid baseless accusations suggesting they were part of a Satanic cult was caught on video.
A group of ordinary mums found their lives turned upside down after finding themselves at the heart of a bizarre Satanic cult paedophile conspiracy, spread by cruel trolls in 2014. The innocent parents and their families were left fearing for their lives amid abuse and death threats, after their details were shared online back in Hampstead, North London.
Video from the time showed the parents and a vicar being chased by conspiracy theorists. The shocking incident was covered in the documentary Accused: The Hampstead Paedophile Hoax. In the show, the four mothers detailed the toll the terrible accusations had on their lives, and the action they took to fight back.
The horrifying ordeal began when two children, aged eight and nine, made shocking accusations about bloody rituals they claimed were happening at their primary school and adjoining church. One of the children alleged: "We do sex with the baby, sacrifice and eat the baby, and drink the blood from it… we dance with the skulls."

A police investigation ensued, and it was determined the children's stories had resulted from the 'relentless emotional and psychological pressure as well as significant physical abuse' they suffered at the hands of their mother Ella Draper, and her partner, Abraham Christie.

The four women in the documentary, who cannot be named for legal reasons, had to deal with death threats, and even messages from those threatening to kidnap their children. As the authorities were unable to help them, they worked together to build a legal case against their harassers - finally gaining justice after an intense four-year battle.
In January 2015, the situation escalated when Sabine McNeill, an informal legal advisor to Draper, uploaded interviews and videos of the children making the allegations to the internet. She also shared an 11-page document titled Mass Child Sex Abuse In Satanic Ritual Abuse And Sacrifice Cult, in which allegations against 175 people were detailed alongside their personal details. In 2019, McNeill, who was branded the 'UK's worst troll' was sentenced to nine years behind bars - the longest jail term for harassment and stalking in UK legal history.
Sentencing a weeping McNeill, Judge Sally Cahill, QC, said: "This case has to be one of the most serious cases of stalking and breach of a restraining order that there can be. The direct consequences of your actions, is that for the four families concerned you have ruined all normal family life. Their children have been unable to attend school normally, and are either home-schooled or have to carry tracking devices and alarms."
